Jesus christ Quick

 

[pete6835]

We're not gonna win if Quick keeps this shit up

 

[lasportzphan]

Well, Quick is officially letting us down

 

[davnlaguna]

We were still cheering goal two when that happened

Man fight back and get it tied up but no matter what Engblom says about bounces that is a horrible goal for Quick to give up. He has to smother that puck in that situation.

Agreed.. *sigh*

 

[lasportzphan]

How many literal/metaphorical bounces can a team get in 7 game series?

 

[ChiefsDdgersLakersKings24]

upon replay, Quick couldn't do shit about that.

JWil up with Kopitar and Gabby line

That's one of those things that makes hockey so great/frustrating at times. There is still a ton of game left and 3 goals isn't gonna win this one. We're going to be in for a roller coaster ride if I were to guess.

I guess and maybe it was the slo-mo replay but it sure looked like he had plenty of time to react to the bounce to me. For me he is getting outplayed by Crawford right now. Might be different also if Muzzin could hit the net at a better percentage than 1 out of 10 open shots.

Muzzin can be inconsistent, but he just missed that one... He got a piece of Crawford

I'm less harsh on Quick than some, and that was a nasty bounce, but I am with your original assessment on this one.

In that situation.. at that juncture of the game.. right after the Kings fight back after that disastrous start, Quick has to FIND a way to stop that.

 

[pete6835]

Ok..... As Puck mentioned earlier a couple times, usually the Kings can't score to help Quick, but they are scoring and going ahead after being down. They are keeping up their part of the bargain. Maybe I'm just spoiled with relying on Quick to save the day, but a .571% save percentage ain't gonna cut it.

I understand where Pete comes from on the issue, Quick is making franchise money, so he has to be the franchise. This series, he has failed to do it. The perils of big money long term deals. But, it's not all Quicks fault- this is not the 2012 defense

 

[lasportzphan]

Let's win this period!

That would be a good thing.
